Vermont’s voter registration is good: about 90 percent of the voting-age population. But turnout isn’t so hot. In the general election last fall, just 54 percent of registered voters cast ballots, according to data collected by the Secretary of State. In individual towns, the turnout ranged from 33 percent to 76 percent. The latest town2town map shows voter turnout as you pass your cursor over each town.
The Secretary of State’s office also collects information on the use of absentee ballots. The second number for each town is the percentage of all ballots cast that were sent in by absentee voters.
